Good day of skiing around summit creek. New snow seemed to be well bonded to the crust below. Hit many small soft wind slabs that were non-reactive even on steeper slopes (>30*). The sun is definitely starting to play into conditions on south facing aspects. Signs of snow letting go around rock faces and the underside of two small cornices had let go resulting in two size 0.5 slides. (Point releases, no observed crown but accumulated more snow on their decent.)
